A member asked:
What are typical side effects that come with undergoing the surgery for meningitis brain tumor?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Meningitis: Meningitis is an infection of the brain and a brain tumor is another problem due to a space occupying lesion in the brain - they rarely go together unless there is a postoperative infection or the patient has another source for the meningitis such as a severe sinusitis.
